About Danielle

Danielle Carrasquillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience. She practiced in Florida for many years and recently returned to New York City. Her background includes work as a hospice and oncology social worker and service in the US Army, experiences that shape her practical, grounded approach.

She keeps sessions warm and straightforward. Danielle listens closely and offers direct feedback. She uses hands-on tools clients can try between meetings to manage stress, anxiety, grief, and low mood.

Her work draws on several therapies, including cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-focused ideas. Danielle also uses client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help people notice patterns and try new responses. She aims to balance compassion with clear guidance during the process.

Clients often come for help with relationships, parenting strain, identity and intimacy concerns, eating and body image, or coping with cancer and caregiver stress. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, family of origin issues, divorce, and career or life transitions.

Danielle asks questions, offers skills, and helps people set realistic goals. Her style is relaxed but focused, with practical steps to reduce overwhelm. To begin, people are invited to follow the site’s process to connect and schedule a first meeting.

How Danielle’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they ask for support and how they react under stress, which can be useful for anxiety and relationship concerns.

Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, offers empathic listening, and helps people find their own solutions to problems like low self-esteem or grief.

Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Danielle uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build small changes that reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Danielle works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and daily life. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts tools or focus as therapy progresses.

Session formats should be confirmed before booking since specific options are not listed here. Discussing how sessions fit into work, caregiving, or medical schedules is part of the first meetings. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can focus on practical change.
